Doing Right By My Son !!!!!

Yes, it's been almost a month since, I last blogged but alot has been happening in my life that I had to think about and get right with before I started blogging again. The first real major concern, that I had was if I was going to take my son's father for child support. I had to consider all my options, before beginning this process, because I didn't want to begin it and then change my mind about the situation. See this is how the story goes, my son's father has not been a part of  his life for the last six years and has not been supporting him for the last seven months.  Just a few months ago I learned  that my son's father has two other children by two other women, which makes my son a big brother. This threw me through a loop, because for the longest time I thought my son was a only child for his father. I will be honest with you and say hell yeah I was mad as F*ck when I found this out, because his other children are just eight and seven years old, and my son is only nine years old ( birthday 11/14), So you can see why I was mad and yes, even hurt, because I was mad a fool by my son's father. But then my anger and hurt intensified, because I thought about the  hurt my son has been going through these last six years not seeing his father and the lies I told my son about hs father to keep him looking like a good daddy in his son's eyes and heart. My anger and hurt turned into a strong determination to fight for  what is owed to my son by his father, and to make  his father take responsibility for his child. So yesterday, I started the process for taking my son' s father for child support. I filled out the application with all the information I had on him and now I all I can do is just wait for my lawyer to call and tell me what's next for me to do. I know this is the right thing to do for my my son, but I have a strange feeling this case might get ugly, because neither one of us has custody of our son, but he lives with me and always have. I don't know what to expect when this goes to court, but I will be ready for anything.
